You know considering her age I would start out with one that doesn't have a lot of commands. So I would go old school (if you can) and get Mario or a Pac-man type of game, then move up from there. My dad was in his sixty's when I bought a Nintendo and stupid little game called Zelda, He played that game every night. We even competed against one another who could find all the hearts and stuff. It was some of the best memories I have of my Dad. Goodluck to hope ya find what your looking for.

PLEASE! It's not hard, and I swear that it won't hurt.

If you take the extra effort to spell correctly, you just might get an honest reply!

If she found animal crossing boring, Zelda for the gamecube. I would also like to suggest some software from the fine company I'll link below for yourself!

Well I do have a Super Nintendo and I have soem mario games and Link's awakening and some other games. I think it would be easier to teach her on a SNES ince I learned at age 5 to play really good and my bro learned at 4! So I bring my snes next time I go over to her house and i hook it up to her 46 inch tv :D. I think after she gets the hang of the SNES I will let her play Mario Sunshine. I figure it out from there. TY for the hlpe guys :D

Grandma...

I think that a grandma would love puzzle games like Tetris, Dr. Mario, etc. IHMO.

I think everyone should go play Punch Out(NES) right now...preferably the Sand Man version. That game is still one of my faves ever since I first played it when I was three. Granny will love punching out big ugly dudes with the shrimp that you play as.

If it isnt Mike Tyson's Punch Out then it isnt a boxing game.

Teach granny to play Last. It's so easy, even a Alzheimered Parkinsoned senior citizen can learn to play.

Dare you start such a thing off of such a horrible topic?

You could atleast have said something before hand.

Punctuation is your friend.

Well, maybe not yours. But certainly a friend to the rest of us.

It's hard to write a serious reply when your eyes are bleeding.
